Leo's First Birthday Sneak Peek
It was so wonderful to see Leo and his family again to celebrate his very first birthday! It’s hard to believe it’s already been a year since newborn pictures, and now he’s walking and into everything, just like he’s supposed to be.
Leo was quite adorable in his button down shirt and suspenders, complete with a pocket square. He loved getting to play with the blocks as he settled into pictures but mostly because each time we’d collect them together he would throw them in various directions.
He rocked the different chairs and baskets, and it was a good thing we did have a baby-sized basket to trap him inside for a few quick minutes before he was on the move again. We did give him some opportunities to stand and put blocks on top of a stool, and we all just had to be quick on our toes as he was such a fast little walker!
His family also had asked if they could bring in a giant giraffe that a family member had handmade especially for Leo. They warned me it was big, but it truly was almost as tall as me and it was so well made! We had fun setting it up along the wall with Leo between the front legs for a quick picture and it will be fun to see how he grows compared to it over the years.
After some quick family pictures, we set up the little white toddler bathtub for Leo’s splash bath. He wasn’t into the splashing as much, but loved sorting the ducks and even quacking at them a few times. We all enjoyed watching him move the ducks in and out of the tub until he realized he could stand and we needed to end bathtime.
It truly was a fun time with Leo and his family and I so enjoy getting to watch these babies grow up and enter new stages after meeting them for newborn pictures. I wish him the happiest birthday!
